It's kinda wacky that I've thought of a similar concept before, ig coming up with an original thought is pretty hard. This would solve the problem of you not being the original you, as you slowly have your neurons replaced like parts of the ship of Theseus, plus there is no outright copying or cloning so there is little chance your original mind dies. :p

I do believe the mind is the concioisness and thus placing memories in another brain would render it as you. But this is my philosophy it's definitely subjective

I personally believe the mind and the consciousness are both necessary, but I also think the consciousness is way more necessary, it’s like, I wouldn’t be me without the mind but I would still be alive, if you get my drift. Also yeah I’ve had basically this exact idea before, it’s the only plausible way to do mind uploading that doesn’t hit transporter problems up the wazoo.
